High
up in the forward lookout pod, the on-duty 'glasser strained his eyes
against the glare of the incessant sun. Peering straight ahead, the
young man squinted at the shapes forming on the horizon. Lifting his
head for a moment, he blinked, rubbing his eyes, before placing an eye
to the spyglass once more and to look again at the dark mass. "By the
gears!" He cried, beckoning urgently to the older man, "quick Fred, I
need yer to four eyes that storm, I don't think it's normal". Frederick
Lee, the most experienced lookout in the fleet, looked out across the
cloudscape, hardly needing the glass now, as great purple clouds swirled
ever larger, looming ever closer.
"Aye lad, that's them all
right. That's the confluence storm, we've found it." Turning to the
brass speaking tube to his right, Lee sounded a klaxon to attract
attention on the bridge far below them. The klaxon call was acknowledged
with an anxious voice.
"What did you see?"
"Fairelands, Right ahead!"

Asperatus
- An airborne community living high above the clouds which hide their
broken homeland far below, is just one of the treats in store for
visitors to this year's Fantasy Faire. The Faire which opens to the
public tomorrow (1st May) and will run until the 11th promises to be
every bit as fun, exciting and full of tinies, as previous years.
Always
my favourite RFL event, perhaps my favourite event of any kind, the
faire is a wonderful mixture of fantasy styles and themes. 2014 is
different for this seasoned Faire reporter, having journalled, filmed
and photographed previous conjunctions of Fairelands, this year I have
had the honour of bringing you a Faireland from within my own head,
Asperatus.

Come
visit the faire and enjoy all the creations we have for you. Anything
you could wish to buy in a fantasy related theme is available some where
and there are many new treats to be found this year too.
